Description

Everyone's favourite privacy-loving cat is now on iPhone! Get an encrypted cat in your pocket, have private chats with friends any time.

“Cryptocat has a simple, countercultural goal: people should be able to talk on the Internet without being subjected to surveillance.” — NYTimes

16th Annual Webby Awards Honoree, Social Media Category. — Webby Awards

Cryptocat lets you chat with privacy. It encrypts your chats and you already know how to use it.

Easily have group conversations with your friends without fearing monitoring or interception. Cryptocat is free, open chat that aims to provide an open, accessible Instant Messaging environment with a transparent layer of encryption that's easy to use.

Cryptocat is developed by privacy advocates, for privacy advocates. Big Data providers continue to amass gigantic amounts of personal information without providing any guarantee of privacy, while encryption remains largely inaccessible. This means that a lot of what you do online is not within your control, but rather susceptible to governmental or corporate interception.

Cryptocat aims to bridge the gap for those who need encrypted communications that are easily accessible.

What's New in Version 1.02

■ Fixed a bug that could cause crashes when initiating private chats or verifying fingerprints.
■ Fixed a bug that wouldn't allow underscore characters in nicknames or conversation names.
■ Autocorrect has been disabled to prevent potential caching of words of messages.
■ Fixed a bug that would make the iOS app icon look less appealing on devices.
